The first mainline Pokémon game that is 3D. How does it hold up? Surprisingly well actually i think some of the 3D models, are they still using today.

I only play Pokemon games in Nuzlocke, this is one of the more funnies game to do it, because they are a lot of pokemons and the party XP makes it easy to level up.

The Pokémon formula has basically been the same since the beginning, there has been a small things that have been added in this one, and they will probably be taking away in the next game. So what is unique to this one?

Horde encounter where you fight five pokemon's at once. It's is a nice way to level up if you have the right attack and it is easy to get a lot of Ev points.

Some of the Pokémon's have ultra forms, that are fun and look great, but sadly most of them are locked to postgame.

The game has a good amount of optional areas, that has goodies and new Pokemon to capture so for Nuzlocke purposes it is great.

And that you no longer losers TM when using them,it's such a nice thing for team building.

In my opinion, it's just one of the more fun little Pokemon games that has enough unique things and good level design. X/y is one of the better ones to return to.

Pokemon X is the first Pokemon main-series game to be released on the Nintendo 3DS. Not only did this add in the 3D view during Pokemon battles, it also opened up Pokemon to new aspects of the 3DS such as: new updates that can be downloaded from the Nintendo e-Shop, Streetpass communication, and more! Though there are not as many new Pokemon in Generation 6 as in other generations, you can encounter Pokemon from all 6 generations in the wild once you first begin the game. Also, the gyms have significantly improved in Pokemon X with added-in 3D effects. Each gym has its own different type of maze to reach the gym leader where you encounter gym trainers on the way.

Not only is the game play of Pokemon X magnificent, the plot is also intriguing. The villain organization of the Kalos region, Team Flare, who eliminates anyone who doesn't follow their standards. Pokemon X introduced a new method of training Pokemon; Super Training! You can access Super Training via the bottom screen of the 3DS. In Super Training, you aim soccer balls at balloons of different Pokemon; each with its own way of attacking you. After completing these training sessions, your Pokemon's base stats increase slightly, and you are rewarded bags that can increase your Pokemon's stats even further in Core Training.

The only cons about this game are that 3D mode is only during battles but not in over-world view, and that there are only 69 new Pokemon is Generation 6 (though you still encounter many Pokemon because you can find Pokemon from Generations 1-6). So overall, Pokemon X is a revolutionary game with only a few flaws that successfully introduced Pokemon to the Nintendo 3DS.

I first got this all the way back into 2015, roughly 5 years ago. When I first played it, too boy, it was amazing. The soundtrack was amazing, the graphics were great at the time, the story is well written, and the Pokemon in this gen was great.

Definitly get this game if you haven't, you're missing out. Definintly the best game in gen 6.
